    Hi folks.
    I post some pics of my first 90mm figure.
    He is a Jacobite young officer at the battle of Culloden.
    White Models figure.
    I've found painting more difficult than smaller scales.
    I've only started the face.A lot of stuff to paint.
    Any suggestion or criticism welcome.
    Best Regards

    I can't see anything to critique!! It's beautiful. Really. You paint in acrylics? I've heard they can be more difficult in the larger scales. Are you finding that to be true?

    Beautiful (y)

    Jaume-

    I have enjoyed seeing your WWII 1/35th scale figs for some time. it is really great to see other eras and scales from you.

    BTW, I had the same reaction when I tried my first 200 mm bust after spending most of my time on 1/35th or 54 mm. So, much area to paint, huh?

    WOW Jaume,
    I LOVE this one. The best you've done till now, again. Are you using antoher mix for your fleshtones, as they seem to be a bit less "yellowish". I prefer this mix if it's a new one. Please keep sending in pics of your work, as they are a true source of inspiration to me.

    Gino

    P.S. I hope no one you love or know has been hit by the terribles acts in Madrid yesterday. The Spanish people are a smart and proud people now we see how they react/ All coming on the streets without any violence. My thoughts are with you and all the other Spanish people.

    Hola Jaume!

    Now were talking! You've done a great job so far. I love your flesh tones! I am sure you are asked this 500 times a month, but what is your flesh mix? I would love to try it out

    Your fleshtones are fantastic.
    Is it painted in oils or acrylics? If it's oils can you post your formula.

    Hi folks.
    Thanks for the nice replies.

    Lou: Yes I'm fiding I have to work a lot to get smooth transitions between lights and shadows.Bigger surfaces=more blending work
    Anyway I'm enjoying painting this guy

    Gino: Glad to see you back again.I'll post another briton warrior soon( ).Yours is really stunning!

    Anders,Rocco and y wong: I'm using the same colours I use to aint 1/35.Brown Sand(876)as base colour.Mixing Burnt Cadmium red (814) for shadows and Basic skintone for highlights(vallejo's).In this particular case I've been mixing some amounts of black to each colour to get a less bright finish.


    Joe: Please! show us your version!.It's hard to see any painted rendition of this,in my opinion,superb sculpted figure.

    Cheers

    Jaume,
